Abstract

Abstract A catheter-securing member (1) for holding and securing a catheter body (5) to a surface portion of human skin, without causing the catheter body (5) to be bent or reducing the diameter of the inner passage of the catheter body. This catheter-securing member (1) comprises a cylindrical body (3) for allowing the catheter body (5) to be slidably inserted therein, and a slit (4) is provided along the axial direction of the cylindrical body.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 74 words
A catheter-securing member (1) for securing a catheter body (5) to a surface portion of human skin, comprising: a cylindrical body (3) having a hollow portion (2) into which said catheter body (5) is slidably inserted in an axial direction of said cylindrical body (3), said cylindrical body (3) having a slit (4) formed to extend along the axial direction of said cylindrical body (3), and said slit (4) reaching said hollow portion (2).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 74 words
A catheter-securing member (1) for securing a catheter body (5) to a surface portion of human skin, comprising: a cylindrical body (3) having a hollow portion (2) into which said catheter body (5) is slidably inserted in an axial direction of said cylindrical body (3), said cylindrical body (3) having a slit (4) formed to extend along the axial direction of said cylindrical body (3), and said slit (4) reaching said hollow portion (2).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 31 words
A member according to claim 1, characterized in that a flat surface is formed on a portion of an outer surface of said cathode-securing member (1), in the axial direction thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
A member according to claim 1, characterized in that said member (1) is made of a flexible material.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 29 words
A member according to claim 3, characterized in that an inner diameter of said hollow portion (2) is slightly smaller than an outer diameter of said catheter body (5).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 44 words
A member according to claim 1, characterized in that a groove (6) is formed on at least a portion of an outer surface of said cylindrical body (3), so as to extend in a direction traversing an axial direction of said cylindrical body (3).
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 46 words
A member according to claim 1, characterized in that not less than two projections are formed on at least a portion of an outer surface of said cylindrical body (3), so as to extend in a direction traversing the axial direction of said cylindrical body (3).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 91 words
A catheter assembly comprising: a catheter body (5); and a catheter-securing member (1) for securing said catheter body (5) to a surface portion of human skin, said catheter-securing member (1) being constituted by a cylindrical body (3) having a hollow portion into which said catheter body (5) is slidably inserted in an axial direction of said cylindrical body (3), with a slit (4) being formed to extend along said cylindrical body (3), said slit (4) reaching said hollow portion (2), and said catheter body (5) being inserted into-said hollow portion (2).
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 91 words
A catheter assembly comprising: a catheter body (5); and a catheter-securing member (1) for securing said catheter body (5) to a surface portion of human skin, said catheter-securing member (1) being constituted by a cylindrical body (3) having a hollow portion into which said catheter body (5) is slidably inserted in an axial direction of said cylindrical body (3), with a slit (4) being formed to extend along said cylindrical body (3), said slit (4) reaching said hollow portion (2), and said catheter body (5) being inserted into-said hollow portion (2).
